The greatest love story ever told
Unfolds in the petals of the rose
In verse so captivating
It rivals the poet's most worthy prose

Every lover's treasured sunset reveals
The finest work of art
Works fashioned by the hand of man
Have never so stirred the heart

Song birds singing their praises
Liken to the timbre of a heavenly choir
And rival the gifted soprano
Acclaimed lest she forget the words

All God's creations hint of Heaven
In every wonder God speaks his voice
Every creation in this wondrous world
Casts his glorious reflection of love

Every glimmer upon the ocean
And every star set in the sky
Hint of a heaven that awaits us
And with the gleam of eternity shine

Every mountain in the distance
Challenge those who dare to climb
The brave dream of where they are bound
And not what they leave behind

Like waves of the mighty ocean
Forever they chase the shore
Knowing not of what awaits them
But knowing somewhere beyond there is hope

In every heart dwells a hint of Heaven
A legacy of the eternal dream
A challenge for the valiant to master
Before the shadow of life passes away
